Netop’s painting career began in March of 2006. He is eighteen pounds of boundless energy and was looking for another activity to add to his repertoire, which consists of daily treadmill workouts, skateboarding, agility, and modeling.

Netop’s paintings have been showcased in exhibitions to rave reviews. A portion of the proceeds from the sales of Netop’s paintings is donated to animal shelters and rescue groups.

For the fourth year running Netop will be giving painting demonstrations and doing custom paintings for the patrons of the Whiskers & Wine Summer Social on Sept. 4, 2015. This event benefits the animals of Yadkin County.

Netop mailed a check for $578.23 in January 2015 to Domestic Violence Shelter & Services, 100% of the proceeds from the sale of his paintings at his recent exhibit at the MC Erny Gallery in Wilmington, NC.

Netop has taken up film making. His first movie is titled "Dog School". It was filmed in Wilmington, NC at Dog Train. It stars his "sister" Ruby and several of his Dog Train friends.
